About Sylvamo Corp

Sylvamo Corp (NYSE: SLVM) is an international manufacturer and marketer of paper and pulp products with industrial operations across Europe, Latin America, and North America. Headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, United States, the company positions itself as “the world’s paper company” and emphasizes responsible, sustainable production. Sylvamo became an independent public company following its separation from International Paper, completed on October 1, 2021, making it a relatively recent standalone listed equity despite its longer operating heritage inside International Paper. ([s28.q4cdn.com](https://s28.q4cdn.com/627430382/files/doc_financials/2024/ar/2024-Annual-Report-5.pdf)) Its core business is uncoated freesheet paper (UFS), a category widely used in office printing, copying, commercial printing, and conversion applications. Sylvamo also produces market pulp in selected regions. In Europe, the company operates integrated mills in Saillat, France, and Nymölla, Sweden. In Latin America, it has a major industrial base in Brazil supported by approximately 250,000 acres of certified eucalyptus forestlands and serves customers in more than 130 countries. In North America, its paper business is centered on mills in Ticonderoga, New York, and Eastover, South Carolina, with product lines including imaging papers, commercial printing papers, and converting papers.

The company’s portfolio includes established brands such as Chamex, Chamequinho, REY Adagio, Pro-Design, Jetstar, and Multicopy, which support customer recognition and channel reach. Its strategy is anchored in operational efficiency, strong brand equity, sustainable forestry, and a globally distributed, vertically integrated asset base.

The 2024 annual report also notes a large capital project at the Eastover mill and 2025 capital expenditure guidance of approximately $220 million to $240 million. For investors, Sylvamo is best viewed as a cash-generative industrial paper company listed on the U.S. NYSE, with earnings tied to paper pricing, operating discipline, and capital allocation.
